Validated Applications
With bridge production, 3D printing serves as a “bridge” to a conventional manufacturing process.
Tooling delays, long lead times, and supply chain delays are all to common place. Bridge production is an affordable way to sell product while solving the delays.
Skip tooling and start bridge production to fulfill quantities from as low as 100 to over 50,000.
Focus on creating product demand, tuning the product, qualifying multiple designs - all while selling product and gaining insightful customer feedback.
